These studies suggest that a decrease in the vagal tone may precede the development of one of these critical risk factors for cardiovascular diseases. Thus, over the last few years this system has been the subject of intensive research. One of the outstanding methods used in the research was the Heart Rate Variability (HRV) study, due to its great disease forecasting power, a lower HRV being associated with greater cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. 7–10 As metabolic and cardiovascular diseases have reached epidemic proportions worldwide and are diffcult to cure, complementary medicine based on quantum physics has awakened great interest and opened up new research perspectives and areas, such as magnetobiology and biomagnetism. 11,12 The theory proposes acting on diseases through the transmission of specifc electronic vibrations, to bring the atom back to the normal vibration; thereby eliminating the disease. 13 This technique involves using instrumental biocommunication devices that are capable of interpreting imbalances in the body’s electromagnetic felds, re- sending electronic vibration patterns in order to restore normal patterns. Quantec is an instrumental bioinformation equipment, which through the white noise diode can capture the subtle bodies and connect with the consciousness. It has been used as a direct interface between an information generator and the patient’s subconscious to perform treatment modifying altered patterns of functioning through change in the internal information of each individual. 14,15 As the heart generates a huge source of bioinformation for the whole body and is responsible for the being’s functioning as a whole, it delivers biological information through heart sounds, pulse and the heart rate, 16 this study’s hypothesis is that a vibration therapy session by instrumental biocommunication increases the heart’s parasympathetic modulation and shows an improvement in the clinical characteristics of individuals with hypertension, diabetes and dyslipidemia. Methods The study concerned 10 individuals of both sex, aged between 52 and 67 with a previous clinical diagnosis of imbalance in at least one of the risk factors listed: SAH, DLP and DM.

Heart rate variability (HRV) is an important biomarker applied in research to measure physiological effects. Method: Approved by the Ethics Committee (1068/2014). 10 individuals, mean age 60.4±6.4 years, with at least one cardiovascular risk. An instrumental biocommunication device (Quantec 6.0-R2-08, Munich, Germany) was used for an acute application of 12 seconds of treatment. The recording of the HR and the RR intervals (Polar RS800CX, Polar Electro Oy, Kempele, Finland) was done with the volunteer sitting in a state of rest for 10 minutes before application and 5 minutes afterwards. Only the RRi series with more than 95% sinus beats were analyzed, having selected the 256 most stable points and calculated the HRV indices (Software Kubios HRV, version 2.0, University of Kuopio, Finland). Results: Δ variation between pre and post moments of the LH/HF ratio had a significant negative correlation (p = 0.006). Glycemia showed a significant reduction (p = 0.010) as did the Triglycerides (p = 0.024). Discussion: Quantec had a positive effect on blood concentration values of cholesterol, triglycerides and glycemia. In the altered LH/HF values, it showed greater reductions in sympathetic activity and an increase in parasympathetic activity. Conclusion: Acute treatment with Quantec was effective in reducing metabolic imbalances.
